VENTILATION
DOWNDRAFT
If you prefer a concealed look, choose a Thermador Downdraft Ventilation Unit, which offers space efciency when a hood is not preferred. The full-face lter combines a lter with a splatter shield in one easy-to-remove, dishwasher-safe element. Thermador invented the rst retractable downdraft, and was also the rst to introduce a recirculation option for downdrafts— making ventilation possible in any kitchen.

DOWNDRAFT
FEATURES & BENEFITS
FULL 13-INCH RISE
With an over 13-inch intake, the UCVM rises well above even the tallest pans. This protects against splatters when cooking and provides better performance in capturing steam and smoke — even from the front burners.
DOWNDRAFT RECIRCULATION OPTION
Downdraft recirculation is now available for island or wall applications. Combine the performance of the UCVM Downdraft with the odor- and grease-capturing lters in the Recirculation Module for the perfect ventilation combination for anywhere in your kitchen.
FULL-FACE FILTERS
Full-face lters combine a lter with a splatter shield in one easy­to-remove, dishwasher-safe element. These lters maximize grease capture without affecting airow.
PLANNING INFORMATION
MODEL OPTIONS
Thermador Downdraft Hoods are available in 30 and 36-inch widths to t your kitchen plans and are meticulously crafted for both function and design. Be sure to reference the correct model information in this design guide.
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Be sure your Thermador Downdraft Hood is properly installed and grounded by a qualied technician. Installation, electrical connections and grounding must comply with all applicable local codes.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The information in this design guide provides key features, product dimensions, cutouts and installation specications. Before installing a Thermador Downdraft Hood, be sure to verify the cutout dimensions and electrical connections. Also, always consult with the installation manual packed with the product for complete details before installing.
Thermador Downdraft Hoods may be installed in a wall or island behind a Thermador non-professional gas, electric or induction cooktop to create a convenient cooking center. Refer to the appropriate section for additional specications.
HOOD WIDTH
Downdraft ventilation units should be the same width as the cooking surfaces they are ventilating.
CHOOSING THE CORRECT BLOWER
A variety of interior and exterior blower options (Remote, Inline or Integrated) are available for Thermador’s Downdraft Hoods. If the unit you have selected does not have a blower, one can be purchased separately. Blower selection will vary based on the volume of air that needs to be moved and the length and location of the duct run. For long duct runs with multiple turns and bends, consider using a more powerful blower. For the most efcient air ow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible.
186
Remote Blowers (VTR Series) Depending on your preference and ducting situation, these blowers can be mounted on the roof or exterior wall of your home. An exterior installation may be more appealing to reduce noise in the kitchen.
Inline Blowers (VTI series) To minimize noise in the kitchen, these blowers are mounted along the duct line anywhere between the kitchen and the exterior wall. If you have easy access to your duct line (in an attic, for example), this may be an appealing option.
Integrated Blowers (VTN series) These blowers are purchased separately and integrated into the hood or onto the downdraft unit at the time of installation. This option allows you to select your ideal hood with the exact power you require.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT CFM
The power of the cooktop, measured in BTU, is perhaps the most important factor in determining CFM needs for a hood. Professional Gas Rangetops generally should have 1 CFM for every 100 BTU.
You should also consider the cooking space and cooking style of your client.
• More demanding cooks usually require more exhaust
capacity to handle moisture generated by boiling large pots of water or the grease and smoke resulting from grilling or frying. This cooking style could require a hood or downdraft system with airow of 600 to 1,300 CFM.
• For those who are used to preparing quick meals in a
relatively small kitchen, a hood with 600 CFM may be adequate ventilation for the cooking space.
• If the cooking surface is in a peninsula or island, a larger
capacity hood can provide better capture when there are cross currents and when the hood needs to be mounted higher. Downdraft ventilation systems are also a good alternative.
• High heat cooking or aromatic foods may require
additional CFM. Increasing capture area by 3" on each side is also a recommended way to address this issue.
LENGTH AND SIzE OF DUCTWORK
Do not use exible duct; it creates back pressure/air turbulence and reduces performance.
Straight runs and gradual turns are best. Use the shortest route with the fewest turns possible.
Proper performance is dependent upon proper ducting. Use a qualied and trained installer. Local building codes may require the use of make-up air systems when using ducted ventilation systems greater than specied CFM of air movement. The specied CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specic requirements in your area.

If using a 10" duct, Thermador recommends not exceeding 150 feet of duct. Transitions, elbows and wall or roof caps are all factors that will add more static pressure, therefore increasing your equivalent duct run.
